@Balloonian "Rapid antigen tests miss 28% to 51% of active infections, per large international review. Abbott BinaxNOW tests (marketed as Abbott Panbio outside of the US) missed a quarter of symptomatic cases and *half* of asymptomatic cases." https://t.c

This thread is misleading. There is ample data comparing RAT vs Ct vs viral culture. Lumping all-comer PCR data together is flawed (PCR is positive for 25 days on avg!). Symptoms vs asymptomatic is completely irrelevant.

The whole thread is critical, but the main point: “If you rely on rapid tests to rule out infection ahead of a holiday gathering with a group of mostly vaccinated persons then you’re taking a 50/50 risk of getting a false negative.”
